Dear Editor, Ok, let me see if I have this right. Idle your vehicle for more than 10 minutes when the temperature drops below zero Celsius, with no one in it, and risk a $250 ticket.

Dear Editor,

Drive distracted potentially maiming or killing someone and the fine is $287.

Anyone see something wrong with this picture? This reeks of revenue raising.
